Starving Cubans: Will It Work?

Maybe, MAYBE Not!!
{UPDATED: Monday, June 17th, 2019}
     Florida's two contributions to the U. S. Senate -- Marco Rubio & Rick Scott -- should be very proud of the above photo, I sincerely believe. The photo is real, and it's topical. It shows an elderly Cuban woman on the left handing her last egg to an elderly Cuban woman in the apartment next to hers. In May of 2019 -- since Rubio, Scott, and their ilk have taken advantage of Little Havana's grip on the Trump administration -- the exacerbation of the Republican/Miami-led decades-old effort to starve Cubans on the island has reached a peak. The U. S. Embargo against Cuba was installed in 1962 for the purpose, according to de-classified U. S. documents, of creating starvation and misery on the island to induce the Cuban people to overthrow their Revolutionary government, which in January of 1959 had chased the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship back to U. S. soil, primarily Miami where the Little Havana neighborhood has served as the Batistiano-Mafiosi capital from 1959 till today. In 1996 Cubans led by billionaire Jorge Mas Canosa and Lincoln Diaz-Balart {whose father was a key Minister in the Batista-Mafia dictatorship in Cuba and then among the richest Counter Revolutionaries in Little Havana} rammed the infamous Helms-Burton Act through the U. S. Congress. Helms-Burton greatly strengthened the starvation-misery assault on Cubans in Cuba and greatly enriched and empowered Cubans in Little Havana. But, vividly remembering the brutality of the Batista-Mafia dictators from 1952 till 1959, neither the Bay of Pigs attack in 1961 nor the Embargo from 1962 till today, nor the Helms-Burton Act from 1996 till today, has induced Cubans in Cuba to overthrow their rebel government. In 1996 a Helms-Burton's Title 3 provision called for a total starvation of Cubans in Cuba, but it was/is so extremely cruel that not even the Batistiano-aligned two-term George W. Bush presidency would activate it. But in April-2019 fierce starvation advocates such as Rubio & Scott persuaded the Trump White House TO ACTIVATE TITLE 3 OF HELMS-BURTON!! Thus, in the last few weeks the photo above, I believe, would bring joy to the likes of Rubio & Scott. I'll explain:
             The lady on the left in the above photo is giving her last egg to her friend and next-door neighbor. Cubans on the island since 1959 are famed for taking care of each other, even if it means giving their last egg to a friend. This photo is a direct product of benefactors like Rubio & Scott persuading Trump to activate Title 3 of Helms-Burton. The Cuban government has been forced to ration certain foods, including eggs that are so vital to the normal Cuban diet on the island. THEREFORE, if by chance you happen to be a decent person and a DEMOCRACY-LOVING AMERICAN, I urge you to study the photo above and then determine whether your compassion lies with these two elderly Cuban women or with the likes of Senator Rubio and Senator Scott.
     The photo above is courtesy of Florida political journalist George Bennett. It should, I believe, scare and alarm every Democracy-loving American and Cuban-American. WHY? Because, I believe, it shows the two U. S. Senators from Florida -- Marco Rubio and Rick Scott -- advocating self-serving political ploys strictly designed to typically enrich and empower themselves while preying on the backs and stomachs of both intimidated Americans and targeted Cubans on the island. Self-serving politicians like Miami native Rubio and Illinois native Scott taking gross advantage of aligning themselves 100% with Little Havana insults America far more than it insults Cuba.
    This photo is courtesy of the Orlando Weekly. It too, I believe, should scare and alarm every Democracy-loving American and Cuban-American. It shows Florida's two U. S. Senators Rick Scott and Marco Rubio huddling over some piece of legislation that most likely is designed to enrich and empower them but also, to appease their mentors in Little Havana, it well might be some written plan to starve Cubans on the island to pave the way for a return of the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia rule that fleeced, brutalized, and tormented the island from 1952 till 1959. If that conclusion sounds too harsh or a bit outrageous...it is NEITHER. I refer you to the photo below to illustrate my point.
      The photo above is, if truth be known, a far bigger blight on America and Democracy than any involvement in 2019 by the Trump administration concerning the leaders of Russia, Saudi Arabia, North Korea or any such issue. This despicable image shows four unconscionable political hypocrites seconds after they emerged from a White House meeting with President Trump in which they obviously convinced Trump their control of Miami would deliver him Florida's crucial bundle of electoral votes needed for his presidential re-election in 2020...if Trump would give these denizens total control of decisions such as starving Cubans in Cuba into submission. On the left above is Miami's U. S. Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart whose dad was a key Batista Minister before fleeing to Miami in 1959 and quickly becoming one of the all-time richest Counter Revolutionary Cuban exiles in Miami. But the other three are every bit as viciously self-serving regarding innocent Cubans as the ultra-powerful Diaz-Balart family. Second from the left is Florida's Governor Ron DeSantis next to Florida's two unfortunate contributions to the United States Senate, Rubio and Scott. In the pantheon of Trump disgraces, degrades and insults to Democracy in 2019, this photo chronicles the absolute bottom of the pits. And that's because Democracy-loving Americans, I believe, can assume that these four hypocrites relish their roles in orchestrating the photo of these two elderly Cuban women who, as the photo below was snapped in Havana, were down to one single egg between them. So, I urge you to study the photo directly above of the four rich hypocrites standing so princely outside the White House and then study the photo below of two of their totally innocent victims in Havana.  Miscreants in a powerful nation preying on helpless people in a tiny nation verily epitomize what the word "despicable" means.

         "Hey, you people. STOP!!!!! "We are the nice Cubans in Little Havana who make the United States laws and rules regarding Cuba and we've decided to starve all the Cubans on the island for preventing us from recapturing our island that we haven't been able to rob and brutalize since 1959!!!!! STOP I SAY. Y'all can keep your other freedoms for now but WE are the only ones who have the freedom to decide what happens to Cuba. In case y'all haven't heard, our patsy...uh, friend...in the White House now has left all Cuban decisions up to us. DON'T TRY TO BE SMART OR BRAVE AS IF OBAMA IS STILL PRESIDENT. DO AS I SAY, or else!!!!!!"
